When I was younger I read a book about a champion CockerPrince Tom, after reading this book it inspired me to get a Cocker Spaniel.

DiFrancesco's Sassy

I was interested in showing a Cocker but had no idea how. My mom bought me my first Cocker Spaniel puppy it was buff in color. She was a fear bitter. I insisted on working with her. She improved but was always nervous around new people. She had a litter when I was 9. Unexpected of course.This started my journey.

My goal was to improve the Cocker personality. I did just that.I struggled finding a show dog. I purchased two buff sisters. I found in their pedigree the champion lines. This buff girl, Sassy was my inspiration, she was always happy and energetic and she loved everyone. She was a PetSmart model.She modeled Halloween Costumes, she was just amazing.

I then continued to look into how to get a show dog. In 2005 I started with my first show dog. This has been a truly amazing moment For me. I now have 5 finished champions with outstanding personalitiesMy lines have behind them the Dal-Mar line.I have just started my own line with the name ofStand Alone Cocker’s
